Simple Things in Life



I came home from work today and I found these in my room.
My mom went out and got fresh flowers for me.
They are making my room smell quite amazing.



Also, I got some new books this week. 
If you look on my bed, there is a wide range of books, from dating to running to school books.
I love books. 
If you know me, you know that I probably recommend a new book to you every other week.


I am learning to find joy in the simple things in my life.
The Lord is teaching me about contentment right now.
I have realized that, contentment doesn't come when we reach major milestones in our life. Contentment comes when we embrace and cherish the everyday life.
So I am choosing to learn to walk in contentment everyday.
Content about going back to school.
Content about being where I am in life.
Content with God.




love,

  1. Good words roomie. Seriously, being content is a lifestyle that should be highly pursued. Its thankfulness, the very opposite of our world which is greed. I'm so thrilled about what God is doing in your life now and whats to come for this year. :) See you soon lady!
